This past weekend Steve and I spent some time together in California. Steve's sister Lora lives in Corona with her family and we were able to go visit and spend time with them. We had a blast! Friday the weather wasn't the greatest so we spent time inside. We played the Wii for awhile - I kind of kicked Steve's butt...even though it was my first time! I loved the Mario Cart game - we are thinking it would be fun to have one now. We also went and saw the new Indiana Jones movie. Saturday the weather was better and so we headed to the beach. We spent time in Newport Beach and then Huntington Beach. It was a great day to be out in the sun - my head got a little burnt - I didn't think to cover my scalp with sunscreen, oh well. Sunday we spent the day at Disneyland. It was pretty crowded but we still managed to have a good time. We went on the Screamin' roller coaster 4 times - it was Steve's favorite ride and I loved going with him because he giggled like a school girl the whole time. By the 4th time I was done...started feeling a bit queezy. Monday we drove to San Diego with Lora and her family. Steve's parents, grandparents, great grandparents and brother are all buried at a cemetary in San Diego. It was nice to go and visit their grave. Afterward we enjoyed a picnic in the park and walked around some museums and just enjoyed being outside. Steve's nieces loved taking pictures and are quite the models...Steve isn't so bad either. Thanks to Lora and her family for letting us stay with them. It was fun to meet them and get to know them.
